👉 Our prediction is: CSKA Moskva to win the 1st half

CSKA Moskva has been a strong home team overall this season, and the statistics point to them being particularly quick to pounce in the opening 45 minutes. Whether that aggressive mentality is due to the energy of the home crowd or an intentional plan on the part of the manager, it has proven to be very effective.

We foresee that plan paying off once again in their match against Lokomotiv Moskva, so our top tip is for CSKA Moskva to win the first half.
